We visited Boston and Newport last week for a dear friend’s wedding. Two of my favorite photos from the trip:

    The picture of the boys walking the right of way is lovely. (And maybe I watched “The Station Agent” recently…)

  • AbbieBabble Says:

    So that WAS my Cambridge you were talking about last week!

    Both pictures are gorgeous.

    My family and I live West of Boston. Isn’t it gorgeous this time of year?!

  • Karen Says:

    Beautiful shots, Maggie. My husband and I were in Newport this very weekend celebrating our second wedding anniversary. Ate way too many oysters, but I think we drank just the right amount of beers. We had a great time. Hope your family did too.

  • Renee Says:

    I love those pictures. The first one is my favorite.

    This making me miss my New England…

  • Kathleen Says:

    I love old railroad tracks. They make me feel so nostalgic.

  • Dawn Says:

    I live in the area and take my train-obsessed toddler to see trains all the time; can you post where the 2nd shot was taken? I’d love to walk there with him.

    Beautiful shots; glad you had fun here!

  • Kristi Says:

    Those are lovely, I especially like the one of your boys.

  • Kristina Says:

    Weird: my brother and sister-in-law were in Newport for a wedding last weekend too! It’s got me wondering if it was the same one, but I kind of doubt it.

  • Erica Says:

    Absolutely gorgeous.
    Photos like these allow me to imagine being somewhere that isn’t still in the high 90’s everyday.

    As Jonathan Richman says, ” Oh, New England!” You are making me miss home. My step brother chefs a restaurant in Newport.

  • Maggeh Says:

    Hi Dawn,

    The second shot was taken in Newport. It’s the Newport Dinner Train. You can make a reservation and have a meal, there’s also a boat trip afterward if you want to tack that on too. Pretty fun.
